"What...?" My shoulders slumped. "H-He is... alive?" A tear quickly fell from my eye before my eyes settled on Niccolo, who looked like he wanted to approach me when our eyes met.
"Dominixe..." He stood up when he saw tears coming from my eyes. They wouldn't cease falling.
"How come...?" My heart squeezed as I felt betrayed by what I had learned today. "In my previous life... I know that you died... How come you become a different person, Valerian?!" I couldn't help raising my tone.
I was filled with anger, sorrow, and... longing. Even my wolf couldn't handle this kind of betrayal, but I couldn't sense that she hated this person in front of me.
It was as if... my wolf knew.
Niccolo, or, must I say, Valerian, opened his mouth to explain, but no words were coming out.
"He is not Valerian," Henry said.
